DOL, XXIII, No. 30. PREACHERS SIDE WITH REV. MILLS Pittsburg Ministers' Union Now Takes Part in Bethel Controversy Union Sends Letter and Resolution to The Age to Show Pastor is in Good Standing Rev. C. J. Powell Says that Members of Union Are Aware that Bishop is Friendly With Bethel's Pastor. Special to The New York Ack. Pittsburg, Pa., April 26—The publication of a statement by Rev J M. Henderson appearing in a recent issue of The Ace, which gave Rev Henderson's side of the controversy existing at Bethel A M E Church over the removal of Rev P E Mills as pastor has made Rev Mills the subject to more discussion. At a meeting of the Ministers' Union held last week, a letter was written not publication in The Ace expressing deep regret over the published statement that ill feeling existed between Rev Mills and the pastor of the other A M E Churches in Pittsburg as charged by Rev Hen- In forwarding the letter and a set of resolutions to THE Age, Rev C J Powell, member of the committee, declares that Rev Henderson's statement perturbed to be Bishop Dernick's side of the case, but exceptions have been taken to the declaration, as the members of the Ministers' Union know that the Bishop is an avowed and steadfast friend of Rev Mills. It also intimated that Rev Henderson aspires to succeed Rev Mills. Ministers' Union on Rev. Mills. The resolutions adopted by the ministers' Union: In the Age of last week's issue an article from the Rev J. M. Henderson purporting to describe the situation relating to the uprising of the people of Bethel A. M. E. Church, this city, against their pastor, the Rev D. E Mills. In that article, it is at least one libelous statement affecting the standing of the Rev Mills among the various pastors of this city, and, therefore, the Pittsburgh Methoders' Union, whose members are the associate of the Dr. Mills, voted to supersfer for publication in the Age, set of resolutions which were presented at and adopted by the union at its meeting before Monday. April 11—nearly a week person appeared in print and without knowledge put forth an article had been published or was in contemplation by the bishop's secretary or by any one else. The resolutions follow Whereas, A common duty makes us skin and, like the laws of nature they relate us to each other. The great and the small are all alike made to serve us in each other. So much only at his best where the members and is consider of his fellows in every walk of life. And Whereas, For the past eighteen months there has been a pleasant relation existing between the churches of our city and in federation of them no strife having existed but each and all having come together for the success of one common end—namely, the advancement of the Redeemer's kingdom, therefore he it. Resolved that we, the Methodist churches of the city of Pittsburgh and vicinity, express to the Re. Wills our regret for the probable assurance of this union with him in our midst by his sudden leave taking. Resolved That in the eighteen months of his stay our relation has been the most intimate and friendly therefore we cheerfully and highly commend him for his integrity as a preacher of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Be it further Resolved That we extend to Mrs. Hill and her mother our appreciations and help in the work of the parish, and that they may live long to do much good in service for their land and ours and wherever they may be that they shall have prayers and best wishes for us.

Missa, commencing February 9, 1898, we were grieved and painful hurt on the account of the malicious and false statement which is contained in said document; and Whereas, the signers of said document are in no way connected to the Church and are, therefore, ignorant as to its management and condition; and Whereas, the authors of said paper are openly known as having gone from house to house, admonishing friends and members, counseling them from helping or even doing their duties in their support and maintaining their local or general Church.

Several speeches were made by prominent colored and white citizens, all of whom were eulogistic of the high character and worth of Rev Mills REPLACED BY WHITE MAN A. B. Kennedy, Colored Receiver of Public Monies at Hewlett-Packard, Leses Job—No Henson Given for Removal of Kennedy. Special to The New York Age. New Orleans, Ln., April 26—The Negroes of New Orleans are disappointed over the fact that Charles C. Palfrey, a white man, has been nominated by President Taft to take the position of Receiver of Public Monies in place of A. B. Kennedy, who has filled the position for a number of years. With the removal of Mr. Kennedy there remains but a single Negro holding a Presidential office in the State of Louisiana. The last of the Mohicans in this case is the Hon. Walter L. Cohen, who still retains the position of Register of the Land Office. It is stated that Mr. Kennedy is to be given a man and a clerkship in some department in the reason is given out as to the grounds removed, which Mr. Kennedy has been removed, who had the reputation of being a tiptop official, and no complaint so far as your correspondent can gather was against the official conduct of his office. It is stated upon what seems to be good authority that Charles Palfrey, who has been appointed to take Mr. Kennedy's place, was a collegiate of President Taft at Yale University, and the President promised him sometime ago that he would take care of him in some position, hence the removal of the colored man, Mr. Kennedy. RACE PREJUDICE AT OBERLIN Letters of Protest from All Over the Country Pouring Into College—College Officials Admit Discrimination—Institution Has Heretofore Been Known for Brondness Special to The New York Age. Oberlin, O. April 26—Prejudice against Negroes has grown strong among the undergraduates of Oberlin College, and Negro students have been barred from the privileges of the literary, social and secret societies, and are even barred from the church choir. In the athletic teams it is the same. College boarding houses will no longer permit Negroes to eat at the tables with white students. Old alumni can hardly believe it, and indignation meetings are being held by graduates throughout the State Letters of protest are pouring into the college town. Professors and college officers admit that race prejudice has become strong. Oberlin College, a Congregational institution, has up to this term always been a strong friend of the Negro. It was an "underground railroad" station during the Civil War. Many Negroes have settled in the town because of the friendly feeling toward them, and heretofore they have been received with open arms as students and enjoyed all the privileges of whites NEW YORK, THURSDAY, APRIL 28, 1910. READ THE NEW YORK AGE A National Weekly of Large Circulation Appears on the news stands of Greater New York every Thursday Delivered to any address upon application Is the LEADING ADVERTISING MEDIUM of its kind REFORMATORY FOR ATLANTA NEGRO YOUTHS REFORMATORY FOR ATLANTA NEGRO YOUTHS PLAN HEARTILY APPROVED Atlanta Journal Says Recommendation Grows Out of Imperative Needs—Based Upon Practical Sense. Special to THE NEW YORK AGB Atlanta, Ga., April 26—Chief of Police Jennings has recommended to the Board of Police Commissioners that a reformatory for mischievous Negro youths be established in this city. It is most likely that the board will act in the affirmative on the recommendation in the near future. The recommendation was made to the Board of Police Commissioners by Chief Jennings as the result of suggestions submitted by the white and colored citizens of Atlanta. Although there are reformatories for white boys in several cities in Georgia, no similar provisions have been made for the Negro youth. Boys arrested for some trivial offense have been imprisoned with hardened criminals, a condition which has been deeply deplored by all. The plan submitted by Chief Jennings has also met with the hearty approval of the Atlanta Journal, which published the following editorial under the heading, "A Reformatory for Negro Boys." The establishment of a reformatory for the errant Negro youth of Atlanta has been recommended to the Board of Police Commissioners by Chief of Police Jennings. It is to be hoped that this suggestion may be made upon sound practical sense and grows out of imperative needs. In every city of any considerable population there is a class of youngsters, between eight and eighteen, who are continually up to mischief. Their offenses do not fall within the category of crime, yet they are important to society and often a menace to the community. It is from among just such boys that the real criminals of the future are developed. Hence the importance of dealing with them thoroughly and intelligently. It is to make possible an intelligent treatment of their cases that the establishment of a reformatory. Such institutions already exist for the white youth and their results have proved their great efficacy. But there is no such municipal institution for the little Negroes. Under present arrangements a greater number or fifteen years who is brought forth from the recorder and convicted must be sent either to the stockade or to the changing. There he is brought into daily association with hardened felons, so that he comes back to the community more criminally inclined, more dangerous than ever before. The fact is that he is given not only of the dog to cure his bite, but is made to feast upon the whole dog. Chief Jennings proposes, instead of this, a sort of prison farm where the Negro boys who have been convicted of minor offenses may be made to work under firm but intelligent control and may be taught until adulthood, even that a boy or man who can earn a good living purposely chooses thievery or vagrancy. Such an institution as has been suggested would within a year or so become self-supporting. Without any great expense the city would protect itself against the heaviest and most needless of all expenses—that which is entailed by crime. As a business proposition, therefore, the reformatory farm merits consideration. ORGANIZING TUSKEGEE CLUBS. Special to The New York Acq. Jacksonville, Fla., April 20—Crucero C Simmons, Southern soliciting agent for Tuskegee Institute, spent several days in this city in the interest of the well known industrial institution. A large meeting was held at the residence of George H Mays, which was attended by many former students of Tuskegee. During his stay in Florida Mr Simmons has collected nearly $8,000 in cash and bequests for Tuskegee He has also organized several Tuskegee clubs throughout the South. The newly-elected officers of the Jacksonville Tuskegee Club are John H Norfleet, president, Frank Owens, vice-president, Miss Martha Johnson, secretary, Timothy Ward, treasurer, William Lee, chaplain CHANGE HIGH SCHOOL COURSE Roscoe C. Bruce, Assistant Superintendent of Washoula Public Schools, Favors The Days Many Failures in High School are Because Studies are Not Accordant with Aptitude of People. Washington, D.C., April 27.—In his report of the colored Schools of the District of Columbia for the year 1007-8, Rosecoe C Bruce, assistant superintendent of public schools declares that a six-year high school course is more accordant with the development of adolescence than the present four-year course, and charges that many of the failures in our high schools are due to the fact that the studies are not accordant with the specific aptitudes of the pupils. Among the recommendations made are that Spanish be taught in the M Street High School and the Armstrong Manual Training School, that the business courses be removed from the Armstrong Manual Training School and a separate building and separate faculty be established for that purpose, that advance courses in psychology, the history of education and educational theory be taught, that a department be organized under the control of the normal school, use being made of the faculties of the Armstrong Manual Training School, for the training of teachers of wood working, metal working and domestic arts. Assistant Sunerintendent Bruce in his report states "My predecessor, Dr. W. S. Montgomery, out of the wealth of his observation and experience, recommended the extension of the course in Normal School No. 2 from two years to four years." Since it is usually impossible to appoint more than twenty graduates from each class, and the number of graduates has averaged thirty-five since the extension of the course to two years, I think it advisable to offer a post-graduate course of one year at the normal school. Persons completing this course should be eligible for appointment to grades 3 and 4 class 3. Eventually the regular course should be lengthened, I am convinced, to three years. "The admission of graduates of the four-year courses of the M Street High School and the Armstrong Manual Training School to Normal School No. 2 without examination is based on the presupposition that on the whole the graduates are equally well prepared and well maintained in courses common to the two schools and in all other courses equivalent standards. Is the presupposition valid? "In respect to courses common to the two secondary schools, if there be any difference in the initial efficiency of the two groups of pupils, that difference—these courses being academic—is, perhaps, in favor of the M Street pupils. But in every course in English, for the first half year for illustration, the percent of failures was notably greater at M Street than at Armstrong (four-year courses). "In physics there were at Armstrong eight-eight pupils, but not one failed to pass the work of the term, whereas at M Street there were seventy-eight pupils, of whom twenty-seven or 35 per cent, failed. In view of this and kindred evidence, I think there is little doubt that in courses common to the two schools the standards of attainment are appreciably different. It is important that this disparity be remedied. "Not only in physics, but also in drawing, domestic art, domestic science and the various types of shopwork, not one pupil at Armstrong failed. If the subjects distinctive of the manual training school are not taught with greater rigor than these facts would suggest, their educational value cannot be duly realised and their equivalence to academic studies will not be granted by the community. With the hearty co-operation of the principal, I have urged the teachers to see that no such misfortune occurs. I have also urged them to develop the correlations of these studies with mathematics and the sciences, with history and English. "In addition to the percentages of failure in the several academic and scientific subjects, another group of facts may be cited. In June 447 pupils were promoted in the M Street High School, of whom 324, or 69 per cent, were conditioned. In the four-year courses at Armstrong 184 pupils were promoted, of whom 80, or 43 per cent, were conditioned. At M Street 222 pupils were promoted to the first half of the second year, of whom 174, or 78 per cent, were conditioned, at Armstrong 59 pupils were thus promoted, of whom 28, or 44 per cent, were conditioned" REVOLUTIONARY TALK THROUGHOUT CUBA Negroes Enraged Over Arrests Made on Island Last Saturday MUCH EXCITEMENT PREVAILS Race Question is Giving Officials No Little Concern—No Meeting of an Incessiary Nature will be Allowed. Havana, Cuba, April 25—At this writing more trouble is brewing in Cuba over the race question. It is said that the Negroes in various parts of the island have become enraged over the arrest last Saturday of twenty-four Negroes in Havana, three in Oriente and two in Santa Clara, and are talking about an uprising. Although there is much excitement among the Negroes, so far they have not committed any acts of a revolutionary nature. Gen Estenoz has called at the American Legation and informed Minister Jackson that he does not desire to stir up race feeling and overturn the Government, but only wishes to proceed legally with the organization of the Independent Party of Color. All the arrests made last Saturday were made at the instance of President Gomez, who has announced his determination to proceed with the utmost vigor against the elements responsible for the agitation, which in effect is regarded as a seditious movement calculated to develop open revolution against the Government The Secretary of Justice, under the direction of the President, made a request to the Supreme Court to have the Audencia Court appoint a special judge to consider the charges against Gen. Estenoz and others, a list of whom has been furnished by the secret police. Judge Alberto Ponce was appointed and immediately began to formulate the charges, the particulars of which have not been made public. It is known, however, that they include the holding of illegal meetings, at which efforts were made to array the blacks against the whites; conduct with the same purpose, incendias and beheadings; and the publication by Estenoz in his newspaper, El Prevision, of articles defamatory of the Government and provocative of disorder. Among the Negroes arrested some are said to belong to secret societies which are fanatically hostile to the whites, and which have been practicing drills in ancipitation of a general uprising of the blacks Those arrested in Santa Clara are charged with making exceptionally inflammatory speeches SHOOTS WHITE MEN, GETS FAIR TRIAL. Special to THE NEW YORK ACE. Montgomery, Ala, Apr 26—Something out of the ordinary happened in this city recently, something that indicates progress A Negro by the name of Benjamin Hooks shot to death two white men, Robert W Bean and Henry L Brady, money lenders It seems that these two white men went to Hooks' house and abused his wife while he was absent Hooks heard from neighbors that his wife was being abused by two white men and went to his house, got a shotgun and killed both of the white men It is said that the two money-lending sharks had been charging the Negro and his family interest at the rate of 33.13 per cent a month Although they were shot down by Hooks, the sheriff and the citizens of Montgomery gave him protection When the facts became known, public sentiment changed in favor of Hooks. There was no attempt at lynching, and the Negro will have a legal trial. STTDETTS BANQUET EDUCATOR. Special to The New York Age. New Haven, Conn. April 27—The colored students in the various departments of Yale University tendered Dr. Booker T. Washington a luncheon in Woollsey Hall when he was here a few days ago.

Buckman Gives Figures in Addre- s. Special to The New York Agr. Greensboro, Ala., April 26.—In an address on "The New South and Our Opportunities in it." Prof. Walter S. Buckanan, President of the A. and M. College, at Normal, Ala., stated that Millions of dollars are to be expended in opening industries in the South and that the Negro would play an important part as a source of labor. The address was delivered under the auspices of the Surrender Day Celebration Committee of Greensboro. Prof Buckanan stated that the population of the South is less by several million than that of the entire United States in 1860, but the present wealth of this section is greater than that of the United States in 1860 by six billion dollars; that the natural building materials of the South are larger and better than in any other section of the country, and they yield their value to white and black hands alike. One port of New Orleans according to the speaker, handles more shipments than all the Pacific coast ports together, and the Negro is the chief source of labor. Prof Buckanan further stated: National drainage and reclaiming operations are opening up in the South some of the most fertile rice and sugar cane lands in the world; and the rapid improvement of public highways is putting every farm in the South in reach of a market and increasing land values by leaps and bounds. Last year the South with 7,500,000 people harvested a $2,550,000,000 crop. The South is now in states with 63,000,000 people produced in 1890, and the Negroes are pre-eminently the agricultural people of the South. It is predicted that the Southern railroads will lay out two billion dollars in improvement during the next ten years, and that manufacturing interests will spend several times as much. Surely this is a valuable land of peat where the grass is long and the pasturage free. WIFE IS A MULATTO William S. Horton, White, Sue to Annal Marriage On the Ground, Sergio Blood in New York—full Roman Question as to Whether Woman Should Tell Flance of Origin. Application was made in Justice Fitzgerald's Court Monday by William S. Horton, a plumbing contractor, residing at 20 West 100th street, for a decree annulling his marriage to Edith May De V Horton on the ground that his wife did not inform him before their marriage that she had Negro blood in her veins. In his petition Horton avers that the defendant had represented herself to be of mixed French and Spanish parentage. However, he has discovered that she is a mulatto, having Negro relatives in Bridgeport, Conn. The Hortons were married in March, 1909, following a brief courtship. The couple met by chance returning from Coney Island. After making eyes for several minutes Horton introduced himself. After their first meeting many trips were taken to Coney Island together, and finally they agreed that they could not live any longer without each other and were made man and wife. Horton learned some weeks ago that his wife had purchased a gravestone from a Bridgeport, Conn, tombstone dealer for a grave for a colored woman whom she described as her mother or grandmother. Depositions have been introduced in which the testimony of several residents of Bridgeport is given showing that Mrs Horton's mother was married in 1885 to Howard T. Williams, whose mother was colored. Lawyers claim that the case is of much interest from a legal standpoint, as it raises the question of whether a woman is bound to tell her fiance all about her origin and whether she has Negro blood in her veins.

Said To Be Insincere Regarding Position on Negro Question PAST ATTITUDE REVIEWED Representative Howard Claims that Several Years Ago He Championed Negro's Cause NOW BITTER ANTAGONIST When in Congress it is Charged that Watson Decked He Stood in Favor of Wiping Out Color Line. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Washington, D C, April 27 — That Thomas E Watson, while a member of Congress from Georgia, procured the appointment of Negroes as members of his Congressional convention and his executive committees; that he left the chair at his State convention in Atlanta to second-the nomination of Ephraim White, a Negro, as a member of the State executive committee from the State at large, and affiliated politically with Negroes in many other instances, are some of the charges made by Representative William M Howard, of the Eighth Georgia District, who is at present involved in a heated controversy with Watson. Representative Howard refers to Watson's past attitude on the Negro question is mentioned to show how inconsistent the Georgian is nowadays, his utterances against the Negro enjoying his political rights being as radical and erratic as those of Vardaman. In bringing up Watson and the color line in his statement Representative Howard upbraids Watson as follows: "Do you deceive yourself into the belief that by this outcry against the Negro in office your Thomson speech of August, 1902, has been forgotten? When you declared that you were forced to endorse the policies that the Negro should allow in the political rights claimed by" the white man, has not been forgotten. ```markdown ``` "Do you recall the appeal you made through the Arena to the Negroes of the country to join you, that you had the only party that was their proper abiding place; that you would ignore color in a man in order to secure for him equality in law, and equal right to education and equal right to vote; the exercise of all of his rights, based on his manhood and the fact that he was a citizen unprejudiced by his color? Wanted Negroes on State Executive Committee. "It was you who left the chair as presiding officer of your State convention in Atlanta to second the nomination of Ephraim White as a member of the State executive committee from the State at large, saying that this Negro was as fit for this official position as any man of any party. "It was you who procured the appointment of Negroes as members of your Congressional conventions and Congressional executive committees. It was you who hired Negroes to make speeches in your campaigns and who backed the Negro preacher, Doyle, to address the people of your own town, and whose language so outraged the white people that you were compelled to summon your friends to protect him from the indignant wrath of your neighbors. "It was you who took oath in your own contested election case that you were pledged to wipe on the color line in politics and secure for the Negro rights which the Democrats deed to which the Republicans in the South were too weak to enforce. It was your friends who applied for and secured from a Federal judge the appointment of Federal marshals and supervisors to superintend the Congressional elections in Richmond and Wilkerson counties. "It was you who objected in Congress to the printing of an extra edition of the Force bill, intended to inform the white people of the South of the last desperate effort of the Republican party to control our elections by Federal bayonetts."

They manifested their determination to do all in their power to raise the balance of the fund needed for the finishing and furnishing of their building on 12th street. One of the most impressive features of the building was the gathering of nearly 100 workers in the front of the hall with their captains of teams and their captain in-chief, Dr. A. M. Curtis. A circle was formed about the hall and, with clasped hands, the men joined in prayer and in singing "On the Hill."

Attorney Jacob Moorer of Orangeburg, S. C., Wins Distinction by Arguing Franklin Case Before United States Supreme Court. Special to The New York Acc. Washington, D. C., April 27 — The South Carolina case of Pink Franklin, which is occasioning considerable discussion in legal circles before the Supreme Court of the United States, brings in its decision next month, has by the peculiar circumstances connected with it brought Jacob Moorer of Orangeburg, S. C., the attorney for the plaintiff, into the legal practitioners of the South Current comment has oedited "Squire Moorer, as he is known, with being entirely too strong headed and agitistic when he failed to accept the services of the former attorney general, Bonaparte in connection with the Franklin case for the arguing of it before the Supreme Court. There has been no rupture between the former attorney general and Attorney Moorer, but a mere misunderstanding which has been satisfactorily adjusted. Mr Moore is a well known lawyer in South Carolina, having been admitted to the bar of that State in 1886. He has followed his profession unceasingly since then, and has been a lawyer, a criminal attorney and a murder case. He has also succeeded as a civil practitioner, having conducted some of the most interesting civil cases ever tried in the county of Orangeburg, S.C. to his own satisfaction and to that of his clients. He has also conducted several cases before committees on election in the Congress of the United States.

MAYOR FITZGERALD APPOINTS Edward Everett Brown Named as Deputy Scaler Over Protest-Deras Society. Regular Correspondence of the Ace. Boston, Mass., April 26—Mayor John F. Pitzgerald has begun his second administration auspiciously by appointing a colored man to a good position. Just how many more Negroes the mayor will appoint from among his many and faithful followers has not been indicated. But the circumstances attending his first appointment, that of Edward Everett Brown, lawyer and widely known politician and creator to Deputy Scaler of Weights and Measures have caused the colored folk of the Hub generally to agree that the mayor will make good his pre-election promises. When it was announced that a colored man was to be appointed to the office a vigorous protest by the employees of the office was presented. The objections so far as can be learned were made solely on the score of Mr. Brown's color, and the mayor taking the appointment in due course turned the objects down flatly. Just what disposition the courageous and unprejudiced city executive will make of the petty objectors has not been announced. But many are prophesying that their days will be numbered. Lawyer Brown was one of Mayor Fitzgerald's staunch supporters during the last campaign. For many years he has been memorialized by James E. Wolf ex-department commander of Massachusetts State G. A. R. A mass meeting was held by the Dorcas Missionary Society of Ebenzer Baptist Church Sunday afternoon. Scripture reading was by Vice-President Mrs. K.

CITIZENSHIP IN A REPUBLIC Ex-President Roosevelt in his masterly address on "Citizenship in a Republic," last Saturday night at the Sorbonne, in Paris, again gave expression to the great truths of worthy citizenship which should be pondered well by every American, black and white. Coming in this hour of national extravagance and frivolity, directly appropriate in its appeal to the alleged decadent French nation, peculiarly effective by reason of the powerful personality behind it and its classic language, Roosevelt's Sorbonne address will be recorded as one of the epoch-making speeches of our time. It is a clarion note ringing loud and long in the ears of the two peoples to recall them to their duties of raising the masses of humanity to liberty and equality. Mr Roosevelt had in mind the obvious vices and injustices which are polluting the purity of the French and American people when he said But with you and with us the case is different. With you here, and with us in my own home, in the long run, success or failure will be conditioned upon the way in which the average man, the average woman, does his or her duty. first in the ordinary, every-day affairs of life, and next in those great occasional crises which call for the heroic virtues. The average citizen must be a good citizen if our republics are to succeed. He doubtless thought of the socialists and anti-Semites of France and the Negro phobists of the United States when, as he said: one man in special; beyond one day one the citizens of a re-territory of the man who appeals to them to support him on the ground that he is hostile to other citizens of the territory, those who elect him, in one shape or another, profit at the expense of other citizens of the republic. It may be that appeals to class hatred or class interest, to religious or anti-religious prejudice. The man who makes appeals would then be presumed to make it for the sake of furthering his own interest. The strenuous American struck an other characteristic note on the liberty and equality of the individual; The question must be. Is the right to prevail? Are the great laws of righteousness once more from a faithful and virile people must be. "Yes," whatever the cost. Every honorable effort should always be made the war just as every honorable effort should always be made by the individual in private life to keep out of a battle made by a no self-respecting individual, no self-respecting nation, can or ought to submit to wrong But Mr Roosevelt stressed not the rights of good citizens but their duties. The man who is worthy, who is an asset to his race, is the man who works, and fights if need be, and "the first essential in any civilization is that the man and the woman shall be the father and mother of healthy children so that the race shall increase and not decrease." He continued Character must show itself in the man's performance both of the duty he owes himself and of the duty he owes the State. The man's formality is owed to himself and his family, and he can do this duty only by earning money, by providing what is essential to his own life, only after this has been done that he can hope to build a higher superstructure on the solid material foundation; it is only after this has been done that he can he in measurements for the general well being. He must pull his own weight first, and only after this can his surplus strength be of use to the general public. The great American in his stirring address to the French nation has struck a note that will be heard and heeded around the world. The average man, black and white, is the mainstay of this generation and the hope of the next. He has duties and first of all he must perform them. He has the inable rights of liberty and equality and no man is good enough to deprive him of them. HOOKWORM AND THE NEGRO. Press dispatches call attention to the fact that Dr. Frissell, of the Hampton Institute, recently spoke in Chicago on the hookworm and the Negro. Just to what extent the Negroes are, flattered by the hookworm in this South we do not know, but we do know that a large sum of money, given lately by Mr. Rockefeller for the purpose of getting rid of the hookworm, is now being expended through various channels in the South. The Negro should be benefitted through this fund, and the only way to do it is for the officers of the organization to put themselves in direct touch with Negro doctors. White men are not able to get the facts so far as the Negro and the hookworm are concerned Our Negro doctors should be called into consultation and should be actually given a part in this work. To be still more direct and plain, a part of this money given by Mr. Rockefeller should go into the hands of Negro doctors. Here is a chance for the National Negro Medical Association to get busy NOT SUBTLE NOR SERIOUS. Chancellor David G. Barrow, of the Chancellor David G. Georgia, at the Alumni of New York dinner last Saturday night said. Nine-twentieths of the people of Georgia are Negroes. Most of the eleven-twentieths are the descend- ants of those hardy men who came to Georgia to work when only the mout-hearted venture do come. How shall eleven-twentieths of white men compete with twenty- twentieths of black men for the same time care for the nine- twentieths of the weaker race? This is the problem which Georgia faces. We have passed through the autumn phase of the problem, and are now facing the more serious and subtle danger. As a man thinketh so is he The white South. serious and aristocratic in its own conceit, constantly keeps harassed in mind over the solution of an insoluble problem. It does not devolve upon this eleven-twentieth to shoulder the burden of nine-twentieths Nor have these eleven-twentieths ever fully accepted, this self-imposed task. If given a chance to live and work and act and vote like other men, if treated on their merits as individuals like other men, the nine-twentieths could nearly or completely carry their own burden The mental state of such as Chancellor Barrow offers the sole complexity to the problem of the blacks. If they would but think so it is not a subtle nor serious danger, but a safe and simple condition. SELF-SUPPORT OF NEGRO CHURCHES As bearing upon the recent visit of Bishop E Cottrell, of Holly Springs, Miss, to New York, we call to mind what the Negro churches are doing throughout the country in the way of supporting themselves. We very seldom hear of a Negro congregation that does not support its minister and at the same time support various dependent people who are more or less connected with the church organization. In addition, the American Negro churches are constantly sending money in one form or another to Africa. As a recent example, the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church gave Bishop Alexander Walters three thousand dollars and more to spend in helping the mission churches of the Zion connection in Liberla, and to be used in connection with defraying his expenses on that trip. NOT ON THE FOUNDATION. The recent report made by Dr H S Pritchett to the president of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching is very interesting. This report makes plain the fact that up to the present time there is not a Negro college in America viewed from the point of the Carnegie Foundation. That is to say, there is not a Negro institution with a course of training together with endowment and physical equipment which should be properly classed in the eyes of the Carnegie Foundation as a college. This is unfortunate Something ought to be done to remedy this condition Among other things we suggest that at least half the institutions now called colleges should change their name and become either first-class high schools or first-class academies. This would leave the way open to strengthen some of the best institutions and make them real colleges such as would comply with the Carnegie Foundation conditions BUSINESS LEAGUE MINUTES. We have just received a copy of the minutes of the National Negro Business League meeting held last August in Louisville, Ky. It is a very creditable volume and contains most valuable information. There are 210 pages in all, put together in good and attractive form. It will be worth the while of our business men and women throughout the country to secure a copy of these minutes and peruse them with care WALTERS ON ROOSEVELT. In an address delivered in Monrovia, Liberia, Bishop Alexander Walters said "Ex-President Roosevelt is certainly one of the most brilliant men in the world, and nowwithstanding he is in this far-off land, he is the man of the hour." The good bishop has other strong words of praise for ex-President Roosevelt. JUSTICE HUGHES The country may well congratulate itself on the appointment by President Taft of Governor Hughes of New York to succeed the late Justice Brewer of Kansas as Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. What this nation most needs in this hour of wavering justice and commercial domination is a clear-sighted, capable and virtile judiciary. This is a government of laws and not of men. The national and international combinations of capital have caused the masses of the people to stand almost agast at the extremely liberal constructions of the constitution. The nation at this hour seems indifferent and almost deferential to the open nullification of the amendments to the constitution by the Southern States. The equality of all citizens before the law, the preservation of equal opportunity for every individual in the final analysis is in the hands of the tribunal of justice. That that strong and courageous executive, that that eminent lawyer and patriotic citizen, Charles E. Hughes, has been designated as one of the great arbiters of the affairs of his fellow Americans is cause for deep and general satisfaction. MORAL BETTERMENT. In the effort to solve the great social problems now before the American people, another Richmond has entered the field in the shape of the Original Rights Magazine, edited and published by Dr. Charles Lenz, with Charles F Taylor and Dr. Reverdy C Ransom associate editors. The magazine is the organ of the Original Rights Society, and its aims, briefly stated, are Separation of Church and State, solution of the Negro Question in justice and equity; uniformity of laws, efficient public education, regulation of immigration, solution of the drink question, and all questions relating to labor, etc. A sufficiently ambitious and comprehensive program, it would seem, to keep the editors busy for a while But what we desire to call attention to at this time is an article in the April number of this magazine by Dr Ransom, entitled "The Bad Negro," in which he discusses with thoughtful temperateness the question of Negro criminality. He instances the increased migration from South to North as creating a moral and social problem demanding the best efforts of both races for its solution. The earnest efforts of social settlements and such organizations as the Association for the Protection of Negro Women, in New York City, and the Interdenominational Association of Negro Ministers of Greater New York are cited as attempts on the part of the race to deal with the question of immorality. His conclusion is, however, that what is needed is for the best element of the white people to cooperate with the best element of the colored people in efforts for moral betterment, not simply in the giving of money by the wealthy, but in personal service. His contention is supported by cogent reasoning and the example of one of the organizations above named EDITORIAL AFTERTHOUGHTS Mr Roosevelt was just a wee mite personal when he said. It is not the critic but the door of deeds that count. If eternal vigilance is the price of liberty then the colored people of Cuba seem destined to be forever free Now there are the census and miscegen, atom fights on hand. When something isn't doing in Dixie, something else is Four of the Negro banks in Alabama received in deposits in one day $25, $23, 600. The ripple of prosperity is reaching the furthest banks and we wonder when it will strike these shores Thirty seven children out of thirty nine in a white Virginia school have been found on examination to have the hookworm. The trouble with the Southern whites seems to be constitutional if not complete and irremedable Morna Delgado, Secretary of Agriculture and Commerce for Cuba seems to ride in to a higher position on the wave of every Negro uprising. Seem to sort of justify the increasing waves, wouldn't it? The newspapers of late have a most detestable way of adding to the hysteria of the country, and a case in point is the present scare story of completely ruined crops. Work, don't worry, and there'll be enough to go around. "What New York loses the Nations many times over by the appointment of Governor Hughes to be Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court," says the New York World Sort of twisted logic, when New York still holds allegiance as the Empire State of the Union The leading white Republicans and independent Democrats of Maryland are preparing to test the constitutionality of the grandfather clause now operative in Annapolis municipal elections. Did you ever notice that unselfish love of the Negro and fair play are invariably mixed up with a question of life and death to his friends? SUFKRAGE IN MARYLAND. Independent支持 Maryland Would Ballot Political Calls for Two Ways The position in Maryland is thus The Democratic Legislature has passed two bills to restrict Negro suffrage. One provides by amendment to the Constitution that no Negro shall vote in any State or municipal election. The one owns $500 worth of property for two years before his registration. That could not be vetoed, for it goes to the people for adoption. The other would immediately limit registration and vote on this very proposed amendment to white voters, and thus Negroes will vote from voting on the amendment itself them. This Governor Crothers has vetoed, so that Negroes will have a chance to vote on the proposed amendment, and it will in all probability be defeated, as was a former one having the same purpose. Of course, the amendment reversed as it could be brought to a federal court, for it is plainly against the Fifteenth Amendment of the Constitution, as its proponents very well know, but they claim that the Fifteenth Amendment was not validly adopted. Southern Democrats have happily supported the Republican friend as including the chances of the Democratic party in the next Congressional election, when they hope to gain the House of Representatives, and the best men in the State, with Cardinal Gibbons to lead them, oppose it. Here is an illustration how the Democratic may still to represent the people. But Maryland has a good Governor. But before the people of Maryland build a political gallows to hang the Negro voter on they had better consider the gallows Georgians built. Under the political leadership of Hoke Smith some four or five years ago the white voters of Georgia amended their Constitution with the avowed intent of disfranchising the white inhabitants of a total vote cast by the Negro was a negligible quantity. This amendment required each voter to meet either one of five conditions in order to vote (1) He must have been a soldier in any war; (2) he must be a legal descendant of a soldier; (3) he must have good character, and understand the nature of his role; (4) he must have certain educational qualifications; (5) he must own a certain amount of property to immediate action the registrar is made judge of all this. It was intended to cut out the colored voter *Georgia Disfranchises* 50,000 voters this year. The estimate is built on returns just in from ninety-seven counties of one hundred and forty-fourteen counties for last year amounted to 233,230, while the registration for the same counties this year is only 203,890. This makes a blow off about 50 percent. At this age, at least 50,000 white voters will be disfranchised in Georgia this year. Under our Constitution it is impossible for one class of voters to build a gallows for another class and not hang thereon themselves.

To the Editor of The New York Age, You deserve and have the right to thank the touched orphans and rubbed super-announced ministers in the A M E Church whose money has been stolen from them by a set of Christmas graffits, gemmals and presiding elders in the church in question for the boon you have been to the race in holding up to public gaze and contempt for the poor in their districts and who get a large part of the stolen funds under a pretext or another. Our along with you Dr. Hayne of Brooklyn N.Y. is to be thanked for his timely article on The Sins of the Bishops' In your issue of April 22. We do not know just what Dr Hayne has in reserve for the good of the A M E Church but we think that when it comes to downright turpitude in the form of lawlessness and graft the president of the A M E Church can account the bishop of The first on every count. And this allowing the misuse of the funds of the church and the resulting persecution in parish and in the church, bishop ain, if the minutes of his conferences be correct, before he was sent to disgrace the Third District, these things are not so then Hayton and Hamilton ought to be sent by due process of law to Sing Sing and the Ohio Pentitary, respectively, for a decade. A good bishop will den over his own signature, through the Age or any other paper, our charge of lawlessness and graft, we are ready to convince all some men that he—the present bishop A M E Church—is not only lawless and dishonest, but untruthful as well. The Third is ready to meet the First District with the proofs of graft when opportunities arise that there is or has been any graft. That "men of high position or great opportunities who commit crimes are more culpable than men of low position or lack of all, and just why the clean men on the bench—and surely there are some—will allow this resculcity to continue to the disgrace of the church and the chargin of the race The charges are true or false. Let them be tested; what say you, bishop's. JOHN F. HAMILTON. April 26, 1910. Delaware, Ohio. ASPIRATIONS OF THE SOUL. The pathway up the mountain may be plain, But who can rob th' ascent of toll and waste? Far up the valley's sloping sides we gaze To where the summits tower in misty Or, when the sun dispels the clouds that lower. The giant stands disclosed in match-power Nature's external walls that pierce the clouds. Pendant like gorgeous floating muslin shrouds. Charming and drawe the soul that looks to God— Who dwells in skies, to peaks afar, in sood. And feels the force that made the prophets rear His sacred altars in the upper air. The soul will lift itself above the clay And seek beyond the earth eternal day. And never can the man who once has seen Unveiled the mysteries of the mounts sheen. Its dustness and its strength and rugged brow. Feel as he felt before, content to dwell Coopers in the confines of his native cell Far out into th' unknown he takes his flight.

The doctor did not touch directly on politics in this address, but he did say that he was strongly opposed to the American citizenship as fast as the American Negro is doing and in this we fully agree with him. But the American political right for our face Bethel informer. It was almost astonishing to contemplate that Negro men would undertake to float a $100,000 corporation. But it is true that the Lee Chemical Company did undertake this gigantic enterprise.

Its merits to the investing public are the Lae Chemical Company ought to prove not only a paying investment for those of the race who have money to spend but it ought to act as a stimulus to the economy and undertake within the race.

At the time the recorder placed a heavy fine against the white man who struck the driver, the driver arrest, and who very nearly incited the blame for the accident.

April 26—Monday afternoon on President Taft appointed Governor Charles L. Hughes of New York to succeed the late Justice David L Brewer of Kansas as Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. In the event of the early retirement of One Justice culter it is some officially designated by the Empire to succeed him. Governor Hughes has accepted the nomination which was tendered him by letter on April 22. Should his nomination be confirmed, and there is no doubt but that it will, Justice Hughes will take up his duties at the opening of the next term of the Supreme Court which will be on October 1. He will continue his duties as Governor uninterrupted as a member, leaving them about an hour of his prepred term to Lieutenant Governor Horace White. User since the name of Governor Hughes has been mentioned for the federal court, he has been a popular choice among the influential Negro leaders. His steep belief in the supremacy of law and his commitment to the people recommended him to them as the greatly needed qualifier of a Supreme Court Justice. They have declared that on the questions which must come up before the United States court in regard to this disfellowship promage and protection from mine law that they believed Gov. Hughes would be a tower of strength to their cause. Governor Hughes made his bid for Negro votes during the Presidential campaign of 1908 almost solely on the issue of law enforcement. Speaking with President Taft at the Zion A.M. Hospital in 1908, he noted her 20 of that year he said to his Negro audience. "What your people want is a strong government of law enforcement and what you need are officials who will enforce every law in the constitution and on the statute books." Governor Hughes, nominated at the time, was the youngest member of that body, but was one of the youngest men ever nominated for the United States Supreme Court. THE COLOR QUESTION IN CIRC Globe Sounda & Waring Agn Introduction of Jim-Crowley Thus far Cuba has been so formate and so wise in the regulation, cial or otherwise, of her race relations that the story of a color question be taken acute in the island it be taken with some grams of the count. It was only a year ago the student of the Negro Sir. That was after a careful study of the Negro Cuba—and elsewhere in America-declared that, while a color question might arise there, at the time which he wrote there was no question, the quality of the Cuba man however was important that might resist any attempt either to press or to obstruct the improvement of his social and industrial status. Cuba has a population of about 2,049,000. A million of these are prodded as pure-blood whites, a half million yellow-that is, mixed white and yellow, a million as Negroes or Negroids, a quadroon and octoonor members of which class are always eager to desert the Negro camp and fuse with the yellow Cuban middle class. On the surface this would seem to indicate that the force of numbers is such that the Negro can be a may arise concerning the color question. But that depends. Present population conditions are not entailed determinative of future population conditions. If there should be a falling off in the white birth rate, an increase in the Negro birth rate, and a linked with this in the Negro birth rate a ban Negro's efficiency should continue to increase the problem might become very difficult. Negroes a Patent Factor. Sir Harry Johnston declares the the Negroes and Negroes of Cuba the pure whites they are only to them in physical efficiency or mental vigor. They are a "more oldest factor" in the country than the oldest element of the population, the yellow skinned Spanish-Indian man. Moreover, he is of the opinion that most Spanish peasant settlers from mostly Spanish peasant settlers from Galicia, the Asturias, and the Basq provinces—since 1898 that has turned the balance in favor of the white. But for them Cuba might have had a considerable chance of becoming second Hayton or San Domingo. The Negroes peasantry was low, that of the Negroes high." The Negroes were the backbone of the Cuban revolt. They supplied its most stubborn fighters. When the republic was established, common with all elements, they secured the franchise. In an independent colony, in an independent the 'colored' vote would soon have amounted to a third of the total and before long to a half, and finally have preponderated over the white element. Considering these things, considering particularly the alleged superiority of the Cuban Negro as compared not only with the Haitians but with the Negroes of some of Southern States of some of the Caribbean, they have no color problem on her hands at the moment of serious that she may not be able to dispose of it without difficulty there is a considerable margin of possibility that she will have such a problem she does not walk circumcumbers and present the establishment of public or industrial color lines. As there are no Jim Crow cops or places of amusement in the franchise laws, no Jim Crow police offices, but the tendency of the Negro to a political indifference which now occupies us said to be palpable. One should be on her guard. No Walk Globe.

JOHN'S CHURCH Over 2500 Persons Present—Addresses Chamber of Commerce—Banquet at Home of Walter B. Wright. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Cleveland, O. April 23—Booker T. Washington's recent visit to this city will long be remembered by both white and colored citizens. During his stay here he made several speeches and was the guest of honor at a number of banquets. At 3 o'clock he was accompanied to the Technical High School by W H Elson, Superintendent of Public Schools, Charles Orr, Director of Public Schools and George A Myers. At the Technical High School the party was met at the door by Principal Barker and Assistant Principal Mathewson, and immediately escorted to the auditorium, where he addressed the one thousand students who were found in waiting. He commended their work and said that the Cleveland Technical High School had long been known to him as being in the van of new education. Dr Washington thoroughly inspected and manifested unusual interest in every department of the school and kept his escort busy answering the many inquiries regarding the work of the different departments. It was with great regret that Dr. Washington had to leave to keep an appointment to visit and inspect the Joseph & Feiss Company clothing factory on West 53d street. Under the guidance of the members of the firm and Mr Britton, the manager, every department was visited and Dr. Washington followed the manufacturing of clothing through its various stages, manifesting unusual interest in its every stage from the cutting of the cloth to the pressing of the finished garment. This factory works one thousand hands and has a capacity of twelve hundred suits daily. At 5 o'clock Mr Myers conveyed Dr. Washington to the residence of Walter B Wright, private secretary to the president of the New York, Chicago & St Louis Railroad, 1349 West 85th street, where the educator was the guest of honor to an elaborate dinner of eight courses. In addition to Dr. Washington the follow- At the Chamber of Commerce Dr Washington said in part The Negro in the South is not growing water of industry. In 1890 there were only 4,000 brick and stone masonns among our people in the South, at the present time there are over 14,000. In 1890 there were only 10,000 men and women, now there are over 10,000. Largely through the influence of the educated men and women that are being sent into every corner of the South, through the medium of larger institutions, the Negro is becoming a great land holder. We own according to reliable statistics in the South in 19,000,000 acres of land. This is a territory nearly as large as the whole of North Carolina. If we exclude Maine in North Carolina, the taxable property of the Negro has increased during the last twentyeven one years from $5,000,000 to $21,000,000 or an increase of 171 per cent. In Georgia in twentyseven years the property of the Negro has increased from $5,000,000 to $15,000,000. Not only is there growth in these directions as a result of education, but Negro is becoming a commercial factor in every Southern State. We conservative estimate stores to be 10,000 dry goods stores, stores and shops stores. It has been made and drugstores and forty-seven banks. The Negro is getting rid of his ignorance thanks to your help, thanks to the help of the Southern Negro to the Negro's own efforts. When we were made free of the Negroes could write and write.

Walle singing "The Star uner" was presented by green, the president of the Cleveland Association of Colored Men briefly in a few well-chosen words. After thanking the chairman, the committee in charge and the association for their invitation to address them, D. Washington urged the members of the race to work, to work steadily and continually, and urged the men to own their own homes. "The white man he said, "respects success more than respects anything in the world, and a check book in the hand of a Negro will command for him the respect of the white race. "Don't speak of your race as down-trodden race. If you do believe it don't advertise it. Use your color a san advertisement and quit regarding it as a drawback." He advised his hearers to hold here each year one huge friendship meeting, inviting their white brethren, signifying their desire to co-operate with them, toward the city's good "One such meeting," he said, "will do more good to eradicate race prejudice than an 'indignation' meeting every week in the year. In the last analysis, there is in the hearts of these wholesouled, American white men the spirit of fair play." L E Holden then delivered a few words in recognition of the work Booker T Washington is doing "He stands pre-eminent of all living men a representative of the race to which he belongs," said Mr Holden The speaker exhorted his hearers to take to heart the precepts Dr Washington had uttered, and to aid him in his labors.

Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Washington, April 27—President Taft and Andrew Carnegie spoke Monday at the dedication of the new Carnegie Library at Howard University before a representative gathering of Negro educators from various sections of the country. President Taft laid the cornerstone of the library nearly a year ago. He alluded to that fact in his speech and said he had been glad to act for Mr. Carnegie, who was absent on that occasion, and to "feel as a great millionaire benefactor feels." To deny Mr. Carnegie his money or the fortune that has attended his efforts" said President Taft. "The thing we do enjoy him is the happiness that it must give him to do so much good for his fellow-man as he is doing every month in the year." The President paid a tribute to the work of Howard University, which, he said, was fitting men to lead the Negro race onward and upward. Mr. Carnegie also spoke briefly, dwelling upon the manifold benefits of the library in modern civilization. "Almost every day I get letters from mothers and fathers in cities and towns where new libraries are opened, saving that their boys and girls go to the libraries and read and bring books home, and that they are doing well I ask no greater reward than that." 93D BALTIMORE CONFERENCE Annual Methodist Conclave at Crissfield-Bishop Coplin Presides.

"A TRIP TO AFRICA" LAST Friday evening a trip to Newark, N J, was taken to get more than a passing glimpse of the dusky (not dusty) travelers who have been vieing for jungle honors with Col Theodore Roosevelt in "A Trip to Africa." The imaginary invaders of Zululand, officially known as the Black Patti Musical Comedy Company, entertained during the week at the Columbia Theatre, where large crowds greeted them. Many things were said about Africa, and the scenes depicting the hinterland would likely cause our ex-President of international fame to sit up in wonderment should he ever attend a performance of "A Trip to Africa." The Black Patti Musical Comedy Company is not a large one numerically, in fact, when it comes to numbers it reminds one of a large vaudeville act But this small galaxy of performers works with a vim and an earnestness that occasion many agreeable surprises. There is a familiar saying that good things come in small packages, and out of this diminutive parcel is produced the greatest singer of the race —Mme. Sissieretta Jones, who bears the professional sobriquet of "Black Patti" Mme. Jones is without doubt just as strong an attraction to-day as she was some years ago, and she is every bit as great an artist. After listening to one or two vocal selections you feel fully repaid for going as far as Newark to hear her sing Theatre-goers of the South and the Southwest are to be envied for being favored with a visit by Mme. Jones each year. It is too bad that the theatrical situation is such at this time that the Black Patti Musical Comedy Company is unable to grace New York City with a week's stay. Five songs are rendered by Mme. Jones during the performance, and each enthusiastically recived. It is her singing of "Suwance River" in the third act when she appears to best advantage, having an opportunity to show her range of voice. Her notes are clear and bell-like as of old, which is particularly true of her middle register. "Black Pattl" Aspires for More Pretentious Speaking Parts. Aside from Mme. Jones' pleasing voice she works with a sprightliness of manner that commands admiration. There are many chorus girls who could take lessons from Mme. Jones for vivacity, and it must be remembered that the celebrated singer carries herself about the stage like a "two-year-old," despite the fact that this is her thirteenth season on the road, and it should not be overlooked that three-fourths of the time has been consumed in playing one-night stands. This is Mme. Jones' first season to have a speaking part, and she now aspires to appear in more pretentious roles. While in conversation with the dramatic editor of THE AGN the gifted songstress declared that she had become so carried away with her lines that she is ambitious to be taken in the future as seriously in speaking parts as she is in her vocal selections. Next to "Black Patti," Jolly John Larkins reigns supreme in "A Trip to Africa" As "Raz Jim" and "King Rastus" he makes a most favorable impression, and of all the members in the company he is the most strenuous worker, being on the stage most of the time Mr. Larkins has several good songs which he pleasingly sings, his best number being "Mother's Chile," which was effectively put over the footlights The comedian also has many bright lines throughout the piece which seldom fail to provoke laughter. Sarah Green Byrd has greatly improved as a soprano soloist since last seen with the Rufus Rustus Company, and she sings her songs in a creditable manner. Then there is W. A Cooke, who as "Secret Service Dill," appears as one of the most ragged tramps ever seen in these parts. H Morgan Prince has the making of a good straight man, and the work of Anthony D Byrd as "Dr. Foolemall" should not be overlooked. Others in the cast are Charles Bougia, as "Sam Williams," the messenger, George Taylor, as "Hank Willis;" Louis Hunter, as "A Kleptomaniac," Gus Hall as "Chief Zambos," J A. Grant, as "Thomas Cat," J C. Boone, as "Cat Maria," William Wollen, as the janitor, and George Hayes, as "Chief Chef." In the chorus are Zennie Hunter, Jeanette Murphy, Ada Alexander, Emma Prince, Ruby Taylor, Estella Carter, Mamie Compson, Lecota Cash, Nellie Wathins, Rose Hawkins, Fannie Allen, Floridy Sewell and Ella Dum.

The Hillmans were the drawing card the first three days of this week. They have a neat singing and dancing act and work as if they enjoy it.

C, April 26 - Miss James, the widely known mezzo-soprano, gave a concert last Friday night. Her voice has been characterised by Prof Mort, a noted composer and specialist in voice culture, as being of unusually good quality, while Mr Sidney Lloyd Wrightson, president of the Washington College of Music, says "Miss James has an exceptionally beautiful mezzo-contralto voice and a splendid conception of interpretation both in oratorio and individual songs." After her recital on Friday night Miss James demonstrated that she had merited all these statements and more, for she carried by storm the large audience of music lovers and critics who filled to the doors the audience room of Berean Church. One hundred and twenty of the best citizens of Washington made up the patron list, among them some of the wealthiest white citizens of the capital. The recital was given in the interest of Witherforce University to aid the local alumnus association in its effort to raise funds for a girls' dormitory at Witherforce, for which Mr. Carmogle has made a provisional gift. Miss James' selections covered a wide field and dealt with every technical point for the higher culture of the voice, and in all she was equally successful. Among the numbers especially well received were the four of Clears: "When the Roses Bloom" "Florian Sung," "Lo Hear the Gentle Lark," "Printemps Owl Commence" from "Samson and Delah," and "Adaldea" by Beethoven, which was sung by special request of the Trouble Clerf Musical Society Felix Weir violinist Miss Mary Europe, pianist, who is doubtless the best piano interpreter of Coldridge-Taylor in America, and Miss Abby Williams, an accompanist of rare discernment and technique, shared the honors with Miss James by reason of their splendid work. --- B F Mosley Wins in Baseball Suite Chicago III April 26 By an order issued by Judge Bindwin last week Frank Leland is enjoined from calling or advertising his baseball team as the Leland Giants the court deciding in favor of B F Mosley and Rube Foster The court has instructed that in the future no person or persons acting for Frank Leland shall in any way use the name Leland Giants as it right fully belongs to the Leland Giants Baseball and Amusement Association Frank Leland will probably call his team the Chicago Giants For the Latest Theatrical News Read The New York Age.

To the Editor of The New York Age. It seems that when the American Negro is most despondent as a result of the injustices heaped upon him, and the discriminations against which he has to fight along all lines, that something happens to lift him out of the slow lane and makes him feel that, after all, God will eventually he will receive justice in this so-called "Land of the Free and Home of the Brave." I know that every intelligent Negro throughout the United States was given new hope for the future and sent his Creator when he read in the prose of Charles Evans Hughes, Governor of the State of New York, had been named as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States by Prestige and had accepted the appointment, not because the宏大 Justice of said court who believes in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man, and who can be confidently expected to line up with our Justice Harlan of said court on the right, but whenever a question of human rights and liberty comes before said court. The American Negroes, and particularly lawyers of the race, have long since felt that the Supreme Court of the United States could be depended upon to either straddle the question or decide against the Negro whenever any court before said court in which the Negroes had judicial rights were involved, with the exception, of course, of that eminently fair, brave and impartial jurist, Mr Justice Harlan. But the race will take hope from the appointment of Mr Hughes, because while he has never made any pretence of being a large number of white men designate a lover" when speaking of any other white man who believes in equal justice to all men regardless of race, creed or color, it is well known that as a judge he will not be influenced by the color of a man's skin, his position in society, his creed or his financial standpoint, that is the only thing that the American Negro asks and demands, namely. That he should be treated as all other men where his civil and political rights are concerned. In my humble opinion, this appointment is the best thing that has happened for the last decade. Yours very truly. J. DOUGLAS WETMORE Brooklyn Notes.
